Windows 7 is out and about. Microsoft has been unusually secretive about Vista's successor, but now that PDC is under way, they have unveiled the various enhancements to the user interface. Windows 7 might not have any significant under-the-hood changes (in fact, all your applications and devices will still work), but on the outside, Windows 7 represents the biggest change for the Windows user interface ever since Windows 95 came out.

Microsoft says you will like it. They did studies. They have proof. You only hate it because of the slanderous Mac commercials and the communist Linux people.

Now come. Sit here at the computer. Let me walk you through the desktop. Let me show you the great features that the Windows has. Look at the new task bar...

And then you say: Wait isn't that KDE?
MS Rep: No. It's Windows 7.
You: Why does it say KDE then?
Rep: Um.. that's... um... the code name of Windows 7.
You: Well, it looks like KDE 4.
Rep: No. Now look into my eyes. You are getting sleepy, sleepy. You will buy the Windows. You will love the Windows. You will hate all else.
You: I will buy the Windows. I will hate the Windows. I will be stuck with the Windows.
Rep: <click>BOOM!!!
Rep: Bring in the next victim... er.. I mean customer.
